| (...) Thanks Tony! (...) I somewhat agree, but I'm yet to find a technique that lets you do round portions of that size while keeping them "solid" looking. It's also very parts intensive - On 4 of the towers, easy layer uses 10 1x2's and 10 1x1 (...) (18 years ago, 30-Oct-06, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

Glad you like the trees, right now I've only made them two sizes but the scale (...) (18 years ago, 30-Oct-06, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

| (...) This is an excellent model and was my vote for Best Castle at NWBC. The trees in front rock, too, and I am going to have to try and copy them. I handled the whole model more than I was supposed to I think, so sorry for breaking it so may (...) (18 years ago, 30-Oct-06, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

The topknot and queue was a nightmare to balance but I was so happy with how it looked I took the time (twice actually since the first time had a (URL) mistake>). (...) I (...)

While I agree that a properly set up render could look excellent the problems with it are twofold: firstly the selection of minifig parts in CAD is very small and secondly with that much balancing there is no way people would (...)

| Hello! Hey, I like that. Hrm, actually I don't, because I don't like drugs. But its' well built. The futon (? the couch, divan, anyway) looks great, and the chinese topknot is very convincing.
